All Huntington Beach juvenile matters are heard at the Lamoreaux Justice Center at 341 Dawn Way in Orange California across from the block shopping center. In addition to juvenile delinquency matters, family law and dependency matters are also heard there.
If someone is above the age of 18, even if they are still in high school, they are no longer eligible for juvenile court.

Huntington Beach Juvenile Attorney Will Bruzzo has managed to avoid court proceedings altogether for some juvenile clients by handling the case informally under Welfare and Institutions Code Section 654. This section usually applies only to minor crimes like petty theft. Notably, even if the matter goes to court many of the cases can be dismissed after a short period of time under the Deferred Entry of Judgment program pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code Section 790. Mr. Bruzzo has managed to get many juvenile cases dismissed under W & I Code Section 790. Contact the Law Offices of William W. Bruzzo for any juvenile at (714) 547-4636.
